City Pages Uprising Poster at George Floyd Memorial

A City Pages newspaper poster from June 3-9, 2020, is affixed to a gas pump at a Speedway station in South Minneapolis, near the site of the George Floyd memorial. The poster's headline, 'Minneapolis Uprising,' and imagery of a raised fist reflect the widespread protests that followed George Floyd's killing. This gas station, located within George Floyd Square, became part of the public space transformed into a memorial and gathering point for community members and activists. The presence of such media on public infrastructure highlights the immediate and lasting impact of the 2020 events on the urban environment and public discourse.
